It is so customers can feel good about working with a VP for their personalized service.
Hierarchy theater.

Everything old is new again.
Uber was always intended to be taxis that ignore the laws and regulations of taxis and put all of the vehicle maintenance on the drivers who are paid through tips instead of Uber.
Not sure why anyone didn't see that from the very beginning.

Why does my treadmill want my email address?
This is a gen x complaint. Boomers would just ask their kids to set it up because they can't get it to work. Gen x realizes what is going on and that it is bullshit to need an account for a fucking lightbulb.

A teen was falling asleep during a courtroom field trip. She ended up in cuffs and jail clothes
Judge Aliyah Sabree, who has the No. 2 leadership post at the court, released a statement Wednesday night, saying King’s conduct “does not reflect the standards we uphold at 36th District Court.”
If someone does a thing and isn't stopped or reprimanded then their actions do reflect the standards because those things happened. If your court lets a judge treat a child like a criminal for falling asleep, that is who you are as a court.
Fuck anyone who says "this isn't who we are" and doesn't actually do anything to prove that is the case.

'Influencer fatigue' is real and young people are getting tired of it
Influencer = self employed advertiser. Being a fan of an influencer is like being a fan of the insurance gecko.

Trump called his own win in 2016 rigged and still hasn't accepted losing in 2020. Of course he won't accept the results in the next election whether he wins or loses.

Why would this be any different than the time he colluded with Russia on live TV, had a phone call recorded asking to change election results, intentionally retained national security documents after leaving office, rallying the mob that tried to stop the election results, or any of the other things we already have on record?

Elon Musk’s transgender daughter radically influenced his shift to the right. A lot of trans people have family members like him
His daughter did not influence him. That makes it sounds like the daughter was the cause of him shifting right.
Musk reacted to the fact that his daughter was trans. His reaction was taking off his mask and being the piece of shit he already was more openly.
Edit: Not sure why I didn't think to include it at the time, but the healine has a real “Husband beat wife because she burnt dinner.” vibe to it.

US public rapidly sours on Project 2025 as awareness grows
The best thing Project 2025 did was write down all the horrible plans they had so that people could react to it instead of dismissing opponents pointing out what the conservative talking points would actually mean in practice.
They wrote down that they were leopards who planned to eat faces!

She immediately pointed a finger at “billionaires spending millions to rig this election.” That claim resulted in a brutal social media backlash from many who were happy to depict the congresswoman as a graceless loser.
Stop booing her, she's right!

You might think bankruptcy screws the hedge fund, but it doesn't. Bankruptcy lets them drop a bunch of debts and obligations caused by sucking all of the money out of the rest of the changes, so they get stuff and don't have to pay for a big chunk of it before they eventually offload it to some other company.
The whole thing is vulture capitalism.
